What Are the 7 Most Important Values You Can Think of in Your Life?

An exercise in writing

Maybe you have been thinking for a while about it.

Start writing something you’ve never written before!

You have two alternatives:

Either let go, leave it all behind you, leave it as it is. You’ll not start your writing career today!
Or go ahead, take the challenge. This alternative is the only acceptable one for you today: Change! Jump into it.

Sit down, think.

Make an inventory of your life.

What are you happy with?

What in your life should you wish you’d not have to handle?

Write!

Write down the things that come first to your mind.

Write what comes!

Write without holding back!

Write words and fragments of sentences, knowing it is only for your eyes, and you can delete it when ever you want.

Remember:

Writing those things is easier than carrying them in your mind or in your subconscious.

Sit alone. Make sure you’ll be by yourself for as long as you need or decide to use for this exercise.

Take some time.

Write a list of seven (or 5, or 3) things you would mention as the most important values in your life. These values can be attached to and exemplified with persons/individuals, things, actions, joys, worries…

After a while,when you have written (and maybe deleted), written again and changed the words and the fragments of sentences, take some time to consider what you can read on your screen or piece of paper.

Now the next steps are about making a plan for your writing, choosing a genre you’ll write within, and the content you will deliver:

Will it be a private note, a sketch, a guide or user manual, a poem, a short story, a letter that you should have written a long time ago, a speech, a memoir?

Write a draft.

Remember this will only be the first draft. You write with several goals: You will see if you got something to build upon, you will see if you have ideas, you will see if you have words — the right words for what you want to say.

Use some time, work it over and over again if necessary. Make changes, make it better, have the reader in mind. Always keep your reader in mind. You don’t know her, she’s your unknown friend, perhaps your constructive critic.

Read.

Then read and read again, change and draft a new version, then read and think, feel. Are you coming closer to what you want to say?

Remember, this will be your message just now — at this moment, at this point in your life — to yourself and to the world (if you choose to publish).

Then work on it until you are sufficiently satisfied to let your text stand there, on the screen or on the sheet of paper, and you will let it live it’s own life.

Next steps.

You can choose to do this for yourself. Once, today. Or later, several times. Creative writing exercises!

You can choose to share what you have written by publishing it on your blog, on social media, or on Medium.

Or you can share it with me! Send it by an email to [email protected], and I will write back to you about your text.
